Archival Detail
Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Heavy cavalry sabres were military edged weapons issued to mounted cavalry regiments throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, specifically designed for slashing and thrusting engagements from horseback.

These weapons were constructed primarily from forged carbon steel for the blade and scabbard, featuring sheet iron or steel guards and wooden or leather-wrapped hilts.

Authentic pieces generally display ordnance stamps or maker marks near the ricasso, natural age-related oxidisation, and structural features matching official military pattern specifications.

A cavalry sabre can be mounted horizontally on a focal wall, displayed above a fireplace mantelpiece, or integrated into a gallery wall within a library or study.

Keep the metalwork in a climate-controlled environment, avoid touching the blade with bare hands to prevent moisture transfer, and apply a thin layer of microcrystalline wax or light mineral oil to protect against rust.
